Just when I thought I had the problem licked... it seems to have come back again. What I've done again is to check for viruses (none); malware (none), cleaned hard drive, saved data, rebuilt files (w/no errors). Checked and triple checked that all entries were entered properly.

The totals in AW2K do not match the totals in PayPal. I know that they change quite frequent. But I have a habit of either writing down the total after so many payments or printing the page up (from PayPal).for the last customer shown.

I think so, I do the payment less their fees, check the shipping (whether or not there is a shipping charge). Some of the auctions are w/o shipping charges. I can't think of any other charges their might be excepting those of eBay at the end of the month.

Could it be when doing a refund, I just go into the payment and change the original payment to $0.00 and the fees to $0.00 instead of re-entering them.

Yes that could definitely impact the ledger results. Instead of doingit that way, you might consider changing the Invoice status to Closed _refunded. Then record an expense in the Ledger as a refund for the exact amount refunded. That should make the balances come out right.

Thank you, will give your suggestion a try. I do know, that in the invoices, I mark that as closed - refunded and in the ledger, I just change the payment to $0.00 both for payment & fee and then mark it paypal - refunded. That usually brings the total to the last one ( I guess you could say last good total).

Looks like I have a lot of work ahead of me to straighten this out.

Once again thank you for the info and help. Have a good weekend and will let you know the outcome after I straighten it out.
